A defence lawyer said the defendant had been drinking most of the night and was very ashamed of his actions.
She stressed that he was from a settled background and worked as a chicken catcher in his spare time although he was studying to become an engineer.
The lawyer said Quinn had been extremely drunk and did not have a huge memory of the night.
Imposing the fines, District Judge Des Perry remarked that Quinn’s behaviour had been “quite disgusting” and had brought shame upon his family.
